Quarkmine Camps

Quarkmine has been involved with northern Michigan's outstanding robotics teams from the beginning.

From starting teams to helping students learn the skills to advance to state and world championships, we know what it takes to get students excited about solving problems and learning the skills needed to succeed in an ever-changing world.

Our camps are a great way to dive deeper into STEM while having fun. Parents are welcome/encouraged to attend the final day of camps to see their students in action!
